    Lyrics

    Well you’ve got Jesus, I think that’s great for you
    you’re allowed to believe in, but don’t tell me what you know
    you say that I’ve been burning, since the day I was born

    And you’ve got opinions, yeah that’s okay with me
    but you make the decision, like I’ve got some disease
    the tale you are spinning, it’s such a curious one

    So you can preach all you want at the top of your lungs
    but I ain’t hurting no one
    and it feels like I already won
    heaven is under the sun
    heaven is under the sun

    Invite me to your party, it’s an eternal one
    but I’ve been tiny dancing around with Elton John
    you say he’s not invited, I wouldn’t go in without him

    So you can pray all you want for the devious ones
    to me you’re speaking in tongues
    and it feels like I already won
    heaven is under the sun
    and here I’m gonna make it on my own
    here I’m gonna make it on my own

    So you say someone lives inside me, I wouldn’t know who to be
    but I know I’m the driver, behind this soul machine
    not looking for revival, no I can handle myself

    And if the high water come I will not be undone
    my heart ain’t weighing a ton
    it feels like I already won
    heaven is under the
    feels like I already won
    heaven is under the
    feels like I already won
    heaven is under the sun
    heaven is under the sun
    heaven is under the sun
    heaven is under the sun
